Revision: Emoji Review

Revision: Emoji Review

(0)
A great activity to get students to recap and revise a topic in history. Print the emoji grids off onto paper or sticker paper. Printing 9 slides to a page works perfectly. Students stick the emoji review sheet into their books and annotate the images linking them to the topic they have been studying. Students have to think about what they have learnt. Students can then be challenged to make links between the different points they make. For example for a topic on the USA, the Beer would link to Prohibition and students would then describe prohibition. For medicine through time the slot machine may represent the factor of luck and students would then explain how luck impacted medicine. It had been made to allow for a wide scope of topics but you can easily switch and change some of the emojis to make it more relevant.

History of Medicine: Emoji Revision

History of Medicine: Emoji Revision

(0)
Created for a revision task where students roll dice to decide upon an emoji and must then link it in someway to something we have learnt about the topic e.g House = Model villages such as Bournville and Port Sunlight or fire = cauterization. It worked well with by lower ability students having something to visualize we then began explaining and describing in more detail. Students take it in turns rolling the dice if they land on the someone as someone else they need to think of a different connection. I have also used this in lesson in conjunction with some of my other revision board games
Medieval England: Creative Story Activity/Homework

Medieval England: Creative Story Activity/Homework

(0)
This activity is designed to aid student writing and build up literacy. Students roll a pair of dice and find the emoji that corresponds to this, they then have to use the emoji in their first sentence e.g. If they landed on the crown it could be “The King’s barons stormed into the village collecting men for his army.” They then repeat to find out their next topic to include. This works well as a way of building literacy into a lesson or I usually print these out and set this as a homework task. Setting a maximum and minimum amount of rolls, and setting a competition to create the most creative story.

Revision: Question Pong

(0)
A great revision activity that I’ve done in lesson and in revision sessions. Students given score cards and rules and off they go. I recommenced laminating the score cards so they can be written on and wiped off. Add questions to the question cards cut them up and place them in cups. This idea may take some preparation and set up time You will need to get yourself some large cups and ping pong balls, recommend your local pound shop. This really worked for getting Low attainment boys to voluntary come to revision after school. Would then get some exam skills and practice in afterwards.

Homework: Teaching Home

I always struggle when planning what homework should be set and then moaning about having increased my own workload with more marking. So I created this to solve those problems, every so often I get students to take this sheet home and to explain to an adult at home what they have learnt. The parents them comment what has been explained to them to ensure they have done it. I then expanded it to allow parents to have a dialogue and ask any questions about their child’s learning and work. This helped to increase parental engagement which was low and reduced marking on Homework. I have done this with all different years. I allowed students to also do this with other members of staff including their tutors and homework club if they have issues at home.

Print out, cut up, fold in half, laminate and add to key ring. I leave these on the table in resources trays with other things such as glues, scissors, pens etc. I use these for multiple choice questions to get quick AFL for factual recall. I pose the question for 1 min then the answers come up and students have to hold up the correct answer card. These can also be used for voting in class and in debates
